as a spiritualist i have been told in going to hell
but my question is that in your opinion .. is believing in jesus , respecting his teachings , and doing good work in this life the same as taking jesus into my heart .. being saved ?
i dont believe in hell personally , i just wondered what your views were on this , and what constitutes being saved ?

A person born in the Bible belt is likely to grow up as a Christian whereas someone raised in the Middle East will probably be a Muslim.

You know, death, disease, handicaps, Jehovas Witnesses. Who the hell prayed for us to have those. If he creates everything, why can't he create a good world?

Is it a mental health issue or is it because they just can't stand life in general e.g. untrustworthy friends or family, the state of the world or do they just enjoy being alone?

hard drugs that cause real problems are manufactured "made by man" cannabis is a plant "made by nature" let it grow ,

man made alcohol , god made weed , which one would you trust .

you may ask what do i know , but i smoke it , i know a hell of alot of people who smoke it , but its not those people who walk down my road shouting and screaming after the pubs close ,like i said its not a hard drug its a weed not produced to harm anyone , you may say heroin is a natural product too but in fact its not opium is from poppies but it will do nothing to you without the synthanisation that turns it into heroin , cannabis is natural ,

do you believe in faith, in a personal realtionship with god?

do you prefer the rigorous peer scrutiny that the scientific method provides for?

are you mostly just trying to be a good human being or citizen? do organized religions or religious authorities 'do it' for you?

if it ever came down to it, do you feel strongly enough about your 'beliefs' that you could give your life for your belief?

if you couldn't, would you stand by while others were asked to, and remain silent. would you feel compelled to speak out, one way or the other?

so five sentences is pretty rediculous, right?

Well I surely KNOW that he DOES exists. I can feel His presence, and I, many times, witnessed His actions with my own eyes.

Is there any scientific evidence that He doesn't exist???

I am not afraid to get up and a give a speech, or get up infront of people. My problem is that when I am in the middle of my speech and I mess up I get really nervous and usually start shaking. I always finish my speech but everyone in the room notices how nervous I get and they notice the shaking.
Any tips?

It is assumed that you can "accept" Jesus into your heart, and that by doing thing you invoke a thing refered to universally as grace. I contest this, I say it is the works themselves that show your adherence to what Christ taught, and through this you show your acceptance of his teachings. The grace is in the works, that is how you demonstrate your understanding of Christ's sacrifice. Or are you telling me that Jesus accepts lip-service?

Brilliant scientist Kurzweil in his last 2 books( cf. the Singularity : When Humans Transcend Biology ) predicts that in 2 decades man will be able to extend human life indefinitely.
Since the fire and brimstone will be dimmed greatly in the human psyche, is it probable that these myths can survive without the threat of damnation?
What use is salvation when death can be eliminated? Certainly the social cohesion obtained via fear weakens. How can each successive generation of nano-enhanced theists NOT become more distanced from hellish themes?

Ok peeps, from the other question I asked b4, if God has a plan 4 each of us, then wats the point in living if its already set an he already knows were we r going 2 end up wen we DiE. I mean, people say that freewill is being threatend by this, does that mean we dont really have it becuz he already thought up things 4 ur 2 think an act an such already becuz he already planned everything out?
And if its our choice in wat we do wit our lives wether we want 2 live by the bible or not, y do people hate other religions if all the 'Good' people who live by the bible think differently about others? Like people from 1 religion doubt other religions becuz we all think different. Did God want us 2 come up wit this many religions in life?
An wats up wit the recarnation thing? If we r recarnated in the next life, y live this life if ur going 2 live another life, meaning that ur no longer Unique becuz u were already here an this is ur second trip back?
Answer all or 1 or watever. Thank u :)

I was born here in America but my father is Nigerian. Even though i was born and raised here i still have people telling me that i am not American. granted I have Nigerian in my heritage, that should not make me any less American than anybody else.
